    WPL 2025: Gardner's Fifty, Superb Bowling Help Gujarat Giants Beat RCB By Six Wickets

    Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Skipper Ashleigh Gardner led from the front with a 31-ball 58 after a fine overall bowling display as Gujarat Giants defeated Royal Challengers Bengaluru by six wickets with 21 balls to spare in Match 12 of the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2025 at the M. Chinnasway stadium here on Thursday.

    Chasing a modest target of 126, Gujarat Giants rode on a brilliant half-century by their captain and an unbeaten 30 by Phoebe Litchfield as they reached 126/4 in 16.3 overs to secure their second win of the season as they attempt to climb up from the bottom of the standings. Defending champions RCB batted poorly in the power-play, trying too much for quick runs, and were sloppy in the field, dropping costly catches off Litchfield as they suffered their third successive defeat in a row.

    Chasing 126, the Gujarat Giants, who were coming after a series of defeats, were off to a good start as Beth Mooney (17) and Dayalan Hemalatha (11) put on 25 for the opening wicket. But they lost the openers within eight balls on either side of the power-play -- Renuka Singh first inducing an edge behind off Hemalatha and then had Mooney holing out to Georgia Wareham in the deep.
